The view from far distance of Rhum, Muck and Eigg, three of the Hebridean Islands, will leave you dumbstruck for sure, but it is just the beginning of your pleasant trip to those beautiful islands.

Every island has its own uniqueness and history, and if you manage to visit all of them, then you will see why so many people choose to visit Scotland even if the weather is not so favorable during the whole year.

The magnificent scenery and lovely spots, the glorious castles and Scottish temperament will make you feel like you get into a place where the time and beauty stand still and everything is somehow surreal. Check out why people love to visit these islands and what makes them so attractive.

Muck is really great place where you can go to enjoy amazing landscapes, views of the surrounding islands and diverse wildlife. This island is the smallest of all and its really low population and lovely views make it ideal place for astonishing relaxation.

Just a short walk will be enough for you to evaluate its incredible properties. The calm atmosphere, clean air and unbelievable views are really valuable in our modern fast-paced life, so Muck sometimes looks like a paradise to many of its visitors.
